Rated 4 out of 5 stars

This is a good add-on/extension. However, it does not rid one of the horribly annoying blue line down the left side of a reply (something that showed up in Thunderbird 2.x as I recall). There is no way to get rid of that by configuration.

After installing and bouncing Thunderbird, reach the configuration for this add-on via Tools -> Account Settings -> Composition and Addressing. There you will see a button to get you to where you can insert the excellent suggested text by reviewr BT Justice on 9 June 2010. I would suggest, however, that you bump his font size to 4.
